We remodeled our kitchen a few years ago. At the time, I had a Jenn-Air cooktop and Thermador double ovens. I was ready for a change and started researching...and shopping. I was also a Realtor at the time and I started noticing that every time I was in a beautiful kitchen, that I loved, it had a Viking range. Then, my friend who lived in Missouri, remodeled her kitchen and she put in a Viking range. That did it, I had to have a Viking Range and ovens. I still love it to this day and have never had any problems and it''s been at least 7 years. Thanks Viking for making such great appliances.
